New 15" for compact budget PA sub?

edited January 2023 in DIY

Just saw an email from PE yesterday for "GRS K-33-4 Replacement 15" Woofer for Klipsch Speakers"

https://parts-express.com/GRS-K-33-4-Replacement-15-Woofer-for-Klipsch-Speakers-292-830?

Not exactly a high power unit for PA use but I plopped it into WinISD and looks like a 110liter box (Say roughly 21" cube with a slot port tuned to 26hz) would have an F3 of 45hz and handle the full 200Watts (114db at F3) without breaching xmax until 20hz.. where I'm sure it would be high-passed well above that anyway.

I don't know much about PA, but maybe an inexpensive/compact/efficient option for smaller venues?

  • Looks like a pretty nice woofer

  • Drop in replacement for Klipsch, including the La Scala.

    :o I just checked the price on a pair of La Scalas - over $13K!!

    Yeah hopefully it inspires some scala clones =)

    I totally would if I had space.

    Scored some 15" cast basket b-52 buyouts at their "garage sale" days. Offered $25 ea and they agreed so I guess I had to lol. Thinking of doing some cornwalls/cornscalas for my dad.
